Mat臎j Jan谩k & Jan Slanina: Consequences
Urban Spree Galerie presents "Consequences", a duo show presenting the most recent works of the Czech multimedia artists Mat臎j Jan谩k and Jan Slanina.
The exhibition responds to the current social situation with a focus on the consumerist mentality that ripples through our culture in different ways, a conceptual journey through (over)consumerism, post-internet anomalies, bas-reliefs, hand-pulled neons and scrolling oddities.
The individual pieces satirically reflect fragments of modern society and cultural icons, with the violent multiplication of certain elements accentuating this effect. In their works, both artists present a caricature of contemporary social values. This theme, which both artists repeatedly explore, now converges under the metaphorical title of the exhibition "Consequences", which subtly raises questions about the social prospects of the future society. The intensity of this theme is further emphasised by the use of techniques including 3D reliefs and neon lights.
